so maybe it's not fair to john mccain. >> bill: the cut was not fair to the senator. so why did the commentator use it? why didn't nbc news check it out before they aired it? obviously the senator was not smearing at anyone. joining us now from miami, bernie goldberg. before you get to your commentary, i want to play to the audience senator mccain said. >> my hearts go out to your and your family and yesterday in tucson and there were people there affected by this terrible tragedy of the shooting there. i met with mark kelly and gabby giffords on this issue last week. they are becoming understandably great advocates on this issue. i will continue that conversation. i can tell you right now you need straight talk, assault weapons ban will not pass the congress of the united states. >> bill: so what say you? >> this running heavily edited tapes seems to be a bad habit over at msnbc. either they do the doctoring themselves with romney or gun people in connecticut or the travis, 911 tape with trayvon martin or this to make john mccain look bad, or they run somebody else's

why is john mccain so angry? 40 years after the vietnam p.o.w.s came home, the most famous of them is angrier than ever. why is america, why are we fighting the vietnam war all over again in the united states senate? the ticked off vitriol against chuck hagel, what is it about? is it for show? is it about something hagel said in the cloakroom? is it the unfairness of vietnam itself, that some went and some didn't? is it about johnson's inability to win that war or end it? what burns so deeply in john mccain these days? it seems to excite those who knew nothing about vietnam but want to replay it. we dig into the deep well of resentment burning in john mccain's patriotic heart. a resentment not against the north vietnamese who imprisoned and tortured him all those years, not against george w. bush and his political henchmen who tried to stain mccain's reputation back in 2000, but against a guy who fought against fear and rallied against wounds just like he did in the same army of america's long nightmare in vietna
